Abstract: AbstractScreening tests conducted at rest may be inadequate for the prediction of the T-wave oversensing (TWOS) in subcutaneous implantable cardioverter defibrillator (S-ICD) candidates with Brugada syndrome (BrS) because of the dynamic nature of electrocardiogram (ECG)… read more here.

Abstract: Modern implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD) employ dynamic sensing algorithms in order to protect against fine ventricular fibrillation without oversensing intrinsic activity. We present a patient with a Medtronic ICD who had inhibition of pacing and… read more here.
